To add to the other comments, this case was kind of the last straw that lead to the creation of the FBI. Before, it was the BOI (Bureau of Investigation) which could literally only just investigate and take their findings to local authorities who would decide whether or not to do anything with it. BOI personnel had no arresting power and weren't even allowed to carry weapons when acting in their official capacities.

Hardy said he does want to do a second season, but it will be treated like an anthology series and the story would pick up with a descendent of his character in the first season.

Condolences to his family, but is a death really newsworthy if the person's biggest highlight is that they're related to a famous person?

Most people would say it happened in season 4, so if you're still enjoying it, there's a decent chance you'll enjoy it to the end.

> 75% Audience score suggests that most people did like the show
Audience scores aren't a reliable metric because they're self-selecting. That doesn't mean 75% of the audience liked it, it means 75% of the people who cared enough to rate it online liked it.

There's a friend of a family friend of mine that's one of those disgustingly wealthy people you've never heard of. His son applied to a very prominent and prestigious university, but didn't get in because he fucked around in high school and his grades sucked. The guy basically donated a new wing to the university's library or something like that and a few weeks later the son got a letter in the mail saying his admission was reconsidered and he got in.

That just says the two things are happening concurrently. It doesn't say they are related.

That's what Fear the Walking Dead was. Then it just turned into the same crap.

You have to count the day he started as well, so it was actually 11 days, and that comes out to 3.45 repeating.

TLC stopped calling itself The Learning Channel in 1998 and began distancing itself from the name as early as 1992. It became just the letters with no meaning behind them. MTV did the same thing in 2010.

I'm curious how much they'll go into Vaughan's disappearance because the author pretty much pieced together what happened just by reading some public records in an archive and it's still "unsolved" because basically no one has bothered (intentionally or not) to look into it.
